Patent EP-0822632-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SAKAI MICHIO
IPC: H02B7/00
Filed: 1992-08-21
Abstract: In a distributor, a plurality of switches are connected
in series with one another on main distribution lines
emerging from a receiver switching apparatus, thus forming a
trunk. A branch line extends from a junction between each
pair of adjoining switches and leads to each load via
another switch and a transformer, wherein each pair of
switches on the trunk is formed as a single branch unit, and
the switch and transformer are united as a power package.
In each power package, a supply bushing and a load bushing
are placed on the top of a transformer, and shielded with
closed housings. A switch is placed in the closed housing
for the supply bushing, and a distribution board is placed
in the closed housing for the transformer. This
configuration enables the disconnection of any branch
distribution lines from the main distribution lines and
diminishes the installation space.

Abstract: A machine for use in butt fusing in axial alignment plastic pipe having a
selected maximum diameter is adaptable by the use of specially designed inserts
secured in the lower portions of fixed and moveable clamps, the inserts serving to
elevationally raise segments of pipes to be joined when the machine is used to
manufacture a segmented pipe turn. In addition to the employment of inserts
providing increased height of support for pipe segments, the pivotal upper portions
for the fixed and moveable clamps are replaced by specially designed upper clamp
portions that have contacting surfaces configured to accept inclined and
elevationally upwardly supported pipe segments. By the use of such specially
designed inserts and replacement upper clamp portions a butt fusion machine can
be employed to manufacture segmented pipe turns of the maximum pipe diameter
for which the machine is designed.

Abstract: A fuel door assembly (10) comprises a housing (14)
having an open main compartment (16), a door (12) covering
the main compartment when in a closed position with respect
thereto, and a push-push lock (24) engagable with the door
by means of a latch (22) on an inner surface of the door.
The push-push lock (24) is reciprocatingly operable between
a first fixed position and a second fixed position. When in
the first fixed position, the push-push lock (24) holds the
door (12) in a completely closed condition. When in the
second fixed position, the push-push lock (24) holds the
door (12) in a partially opened condition, so that it may
be grasped manually and moved to a fully opened condition.
The fuel door assembly (10) satisfies the styling desire
for a flat hidden door lacking a finger opening, but at
lower cost than that associated with a cable or electrical
solenoid opening mechanism. The fuel door assembly (10)
further will not fly open if accidentally activated, such
as by equipment in a car wash.

Abstract: A method of producing an optical waveguide grating by exposure to light. An optical waveguide having a core composed of a material wherein the refractive index changes due to exposure to UV light is formed into an optical waveguide grating by applying a grating portion formation step wherein a grating portion is formed by irradiation with UV light at a predetermined spacing, and an overall exposure step after formation of the grating portion wherein the entire grating portion is irradiated with UV light. As a result, the effective refractive index of the grating portion is changed so as to allow the central wavelength to be adjusted without changing the rejection. Consequently, the grating properties can be precisely and easily controlled.

Abstract: Détecteur magnéto-résistif de champ magnétique composé de deux couches magnétiques (1, 2) reliées réciproquement par l'intermédiaire d'une constriction (7). Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, les couches magnétiques (1, 2) sont séparées par une couche intermédiaire (3) non métallique comportant un trou (5) rempli de matériau magnétique, de manière à former la constriction (7). Dans un autre mode de réalisation, les couches magnétiques (1, 2) et la constriction (7) sont situées sensiblement sur le même plan (fig. 8). Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, la largeur (wc) de la constriction (7) est inférieure à un micron et est idéalement de l'ordre de 100 nm. La mesure de la résistance électrique à travers la constriction, à savoir, au moyen d'un courant circulant depuis une couche magnétique (1) vers l'autre couche magnétique (2) par l'intermédiaire de la constriction (7) permet d'amplifier le rôle relatif des effets de résistance inter-domaines par rapport aux effets de résistance intra-domaines, ce qui implique l'augmentation correspondante du rapport de magnéto-résistance. De plus, étant donné que les propriétés électriques du détecteur sont principalement dues à la constriction (7), tandis que ses propriétés magnétiques proviennent essentiellement des couches magnétiques (1, 2), il est possible de régler de façon indépendante les caractéristiques magnétiques du détecteur, au moins jusqu'à un degré important.

Abstract: In a wireless local area network, each subnetwork is formed by a base
host and several mobile hosts. The base host broadcasts a control packet at
periodic intervals and the mobile hosts monitor the broadcast packet and
interfering signals from other subnetworks. If any of the mobile hosts does
not receive the control packet for a predetermined period or detects the
interfering signal, it makes a search and selects a new channel. The parent
host also monitors interfering signals from other subnetworks. If it detects
an interfering signal, it selects a noiseless new channel. The channel number
of the new channel may be broadcast using a channel assignment signal to
allow the mobile hosts to select the new channel. Alternatively, no channel
assignment signal is broadcast. In this case, it is up to the mobile hosts to
select the new channel.

Abstract: A burst demodulator prevents transmission efficiency
from being lowered, and a dynamic range of an input
strength from being narrowed, by providing a stable frame
signal even if the reaction is rapid against the input and
the input strength is low. A logarithm amplifier outputs
an electric power strength of a modulated input signal as a
logarithm value, and an integrator smooths the output of
the logarithm amplifier and outputs the smoothed output as
an RSSI. The comparator compares the RSSI with the
appropriate reference value REF while including some margin
within the noise level, and outputs the frame signal of an
'LO' state when the RSSI is lower than the REF, that is,
during the non-signal zone, of an 'HI' state when the RSSI
is higher than the REF, that is, during the signal zone.
The period of the comparator output continuously remaining
in the 'LO' state cannot exceed one clock period even if
the comparator output flutters within one time slot. When
the comparator output is fixed to the 'LO' state and the
CLK is input by two clocks, the output of the counter
becomes the 'HI' state, whereby the output of the counter
and the OR computing element mask the CLK, which fixes the
counter output to the 'HI' state until the comparator
output becomes the 'HI' state again.

Abstract: A signal reception apparatus in the spectrum spread
communication system requires only a small amount of circuitry
and consumes a small amount of electric power. A quadrature
detector decomposes received signals into in-phase components
and quadrature components, and supplies them to a complex-type
matched filter. The complex-type matched filter de-spreads
the in-phase components and the quadrature components and
sends them to a multi-path selector. The multi-path selector
selects, from among the received de-spread signals, multiple
paths having high levels of signal electric powers and sends
the received signals of the selected paths to multiple phase
correction blocks. Analog operation circuits 31 through 34
calculate phase errors of the received signals of two
successive pilot symbol blocks for each path. An analog
operation circuit 40 corrects the phases of the received
signals of the information symbol block that has been received
between the two successive pilot symbol blocks. A RAKE
combiner synchronously combines the phase-corrected de-spread
received signals of each path.

Abstract: In a sampling frequency conversion apparatus,
using outputs of a source oscillator (3; 7) and a
fractional frequency divider (4; 8) which divides an
output of the source oscillator by a non-integer
individually as sampling clocks, an input signal is
first sampled by a first sampling circuit (1; 5) and
then an output of the first sampling circuit is sampled
again by a second sampling circuit (2; 6) to convert the
sampling frequency. The fractional frequency divider
divides the clock signal of a higher one of the
frequencies to produce the clock signal of a lower one
of the frequencies, and the dividing ratio of the
fractional frequency divider for the production of the
clock signal is varied periodically to effect division
of a frequency ratio having a fraction when viewed over
a long time.
